Come ride our river.....its 25 miles of winding racetrack and then opens up for 20 miles of 100+ mph run. Culminating in a beautiful bar stop 3 miles off river!!!

Another buddy had 13K on his. A lot of the guys that had trouble had backed the oil injection off because the were pigs on oil. We left ours alone and spent a few more $$$ a year on oil. SDI or etec? I thought the question was about the etec. They turned the oil down to save on oil costs? Hey, high mileage is possible if it's ridden like a white person. To me, I ain't getting too far from home with 6-7k on the ODO. I don't like that feeling of waiting for a squeak. When I popped my stator it was the perfect reason to part her out. So, did you all attend church together then? I thought gingers weren't allowed in God's house, tha filthy mongrels! Or...is that just Wooly's house they aren't allowed in? 1 hour ago, f7ben said: Fact is....if you ride a 600 and your buds all ride 800s and up you will be rebuilding it at a normal 5k mile interval.

There's always a few that do it and can't figure out why their tanks run dry so quick on their "economical 600". Fucking retards. It's because you are pegging 7800 all day long!
